Russia accused of election agitation and firebomb plot

What happened

U.S. intelligence and cybersecurity agencies said in a joint statement Monday night that Russia is the “most active threat” among foreign adversaries conducting “influence operations aimed at undermining public confidence in the integrity of U.S. elections and fueling divisions among Americans.” European security officials separately accused Russian agents of conspiring to smuggle incendiary devices onto European cargo or passenger planes bound for the United States and Canada, The Wall Street Journal reported.
